What is the correct prime factorisation of 720?
Step 1: Write (720=72\times10). Step 2: (72=2^3\times3^2) and (10=2\times5), so (720=2^4\times3^2\times5). Step 3: Do not keep composite factors in the final answer.

अंकगणित का मौलिक प्रमेय
In this Class 10 Mathematics topic from the chapter Real Numbers, students learn that every integer greater than 1 can be expressed as a product of prime numbers, and that this prime factorisation is unique apart from the order of the factors. They practise finding prime factors and use the theorem to understand and determine the HCF and LCM of numbers. The topic builds clear reasoning about the structure of whole numbers and supports later work with divisibility and number relationships.

Step 1: Write (720=72\times10). Step 2: (72=2^3\times3^2) and (10=2\times5), so (720=2^4\times3^2\times5). Step 3: Do not keep composite factors in the final answer.
View question detailsStep 1: Write (924=84\times11). Step 2: (84=2^2\times3\times7), so (924=2^2\times3\times7\times11). Step 3: 84 is composite, so do not leave it in the final prime form.
View question detailsStep 1: Write (1176=24\times49). Step 2: (24=2^3\times3) and (49=7^2), so (1176=2^3\times3\times7^2). Step 3: 24 and 49 are composite, so write prime powers in the final form.
View question detailsStep 1: For HCF, take the smaller powers of common prime factors. Step 2: The smaller powers are (2^3), (3^1), and (5^1). Step 3: (8\times3\times5=120), so the answer is 120.
View question detailsStep 1: For LCM, take the highest powers of all prime factors. Step 2: The highest powers are (2^5), (3^2), (5^2), and (7). Step 3: (32\times9\times25\times7=50400), so the answer is 50400.
View question detailsStep 1: For two numbers, product (=) HCF (\times) LCM. Step 2: LCM (=2520\div21=120). Step 3: Use this formula directly only for two numbers.
View question detailsStep 1: For two numbers, product (=) HCF (\times) LCM. Step 2: (24\times360=8640). Step 3: Apply the HCF-LCM relation carefully.
View question detailsStep 1: First calculate (2^4=16) and (3^2=9). Step 2: (16\times9\times7=1008). Step 3: Simplify powers first while finding the number.
View question detailsStep 1: Write (2520=252\times10). Step 2: (252=2^2\times3^2\times7) and (10=2\times5), so (2520=2^3\times3^2\times5\times7). Step 3: The number of times 2 appears is its power.
View question detailsStep 1: Write (1575=15\times105). Step 2: (15=3\times5) and (105=3\times5\times7), so (1575=3^2\times5^2\times7). Step 3: Do not keep composite factors in the final answer.
View question detailsStep 1: Calculate (2^4=16) and (3^2=9). Step 2: (16\times9\times5=720). Step 3: To get the number from prime factorisation, multiply all factors.
View question detailsStep 1: Look at distinct prime factors, not powers. Step 2: In (m), the distinct primes are 2, 3, 7, and 11. Step 3: Count 2 and 3 only once each despite their powers.
View question detailsStep 1: (27=3^3) and (64=2^6). Step 2: They have no common prime factor. Step 3: Therefore, they are co-prime and their HCF is 1.
View question detailsStep 1: Co-prime numbers have HCF 1. Step 2: For two numbers, product (=) HCF (\times) LCM. Step 3: Therefore, the LCM will be 391.
View question detailsStep 1: In prime factorisation, every factor must be prime. Step 2: (2), (3), and (13) are prime, so (2^3\times3\times13) is correct. Step 3: 8, 12, and 24 are composite, so they cannot remain in the final form.
View question detailsStep 1: The common prime factors are 2 and 3. Step 2: The smaller powers are (2^3) and (3^1). Step 3: (8\times3=24), so the HCF is 24.
View question detailsStep 1: For LCM, take the highest powers. Step 2: The highest powers are (2^4), (3^2), and (7). Step 3: (16\times9\times7=1008), so the answer is 1008.
View question detailsStep 1: Write (1890=189\times10). Step 2: (189=3^3\times7) and (10=2\times5). Step 3: Therefore, (1890=2\times3^3\times5\times7).
View question detailsStep 1: Calculate (2^6=64) and (3^2=9). Step 2: (64\times9=576). Step 3: In a form with powers, it is easier to evaluate powers first.
View question detailsStep 1: To count with repetition, add the exponents. Step 2: (2^5) gives 5, (3^3) gives 3, and (7) gives 1 factor. Step 3: Total (5+3+1=9), so the answer is 9.
